We investigate the massive Schwinger model in d = 1 + 1 dimensions using bosonization and the non-perturbative functional renormalization group. In agreement with previous studies we find that the phase transition, driven by a change of the ratio m/e between the mass and the charge of the fermions, belongs to the two-dimensional Ising universality class. The temperature and vacuum angle dependence of various physical quantities (chiral density, electric field, entropy density) are also determined and agree with results obtained from density matrix renormalization group studies. Screening of fractional charges and deconfinement occur only at infinite temperature.
